There is no strategy article for Treasure Trove yet, as Adventures is still quite new, and the community is still discussing how best to use it. If you have ideas, please share them on the [http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php forum!]
+
Treasure Trove is typically best thought of as a {{Card|Gold}} [[gainer]] whose usability is primarily dependent on your ability to handle the {{Card|Copper}} that it also gains. Its effect of adding two [[stop card]]s to your deck every time you play it is very demanding in terms of [[deck control]] and [[draw]], especially given that one of its gains is [[junk]] in most cases. Therefore, Treasure Trove is most likely to be a good option for [[payload]] if you can manage the {{Card|Copper|Coppers}} easily, if you actively want them, or if you’re not aiming to establish deck control in any case.
  
Many cards in [[Adventures]] favor strong [[engine]]s. Treasure Trove is a big exception to this rule. It gains you a metric ton of Treasures (hence its name), clogging up your deck if you want to build any type of engine, but drastically increasing your money density in [[Big Money]] and [[slog]]s. It should, in the vast majority of cases, not be bought in engines at all, as even with {{Card|Storyteller}} your engine will just not come together, but its sheer power as a Big Money and slog card can definitely make you reconsider some of the weaker engines. One exception to the 'don't-buy-it-in-engines' rule might be when you are overdrawing your deck, you need a lot of [[payload]] quickly, and there is strong Copper trashing available.  
+
In an [[engine]] context, Treasure Trove requires a confluence of factors in order to be worth the downsides, but it might be attractive if you want to add multiple {{Card|Gold|Golds}} to your deck quickly. These might be for use as [[payload]] directly (if there is [[+Buy]] and no better alternative payload, or no other way to gain it readily), or as fodder for [[trash-for-benefit]] effects such as {{Card|Bishop}}. In either case, it’s generally best to gain Treasure Trove only once you’ve achieved deck control and have the tools to maintain it, which typically entails removing the {{Card|Copper|Coppers}} as quickly as you gain them. Ways to do this include {{Card|Watchtower}} (which can trash them immediately, meaning you never need to draw them) and {{Card|Monastery}} (whose trashing effect is boosted by Treasure Trove itself). However, Treasure Trove may be especially desirable if you can make active use of the {{Card|Copper|Coppers}}: for example, if your only source of +Buy is {{Card|Forager}} and gains are otherwise difficult to come by, they might make useful fodder for it.  
  
How many Treasure Troves do you want? In Big Money, you usually don't want more than two; by the time you get two, you might already be almost ready to green. In slogs, you might want a couple more. I've personally gotten up to five Treasure Troves on a board with {{Card|Duke}} and {{Card|Familiar}} without trashing, and managed to win while ignoring Familiar.
+
Treasure Trove can also be a useful addition to a [[money strategy]] given you likely are not aiming to achieve deck control anyway. In this case, the increase in [[money density]] from the added Treasures is more relevant than the potential negative effect of the {{Card|Copper|Coppers}}. [[Sifter]]s such as {{Card|Dungeon}} can be particularly useful as they can help you find your Treasure Troves and {{Card|Gold|Golds}} more consistently.
  
=== Synergies ===
+
Occasionally, because it gains two cards with a single play and takes up no [[terminal space]], Treasure Trove can be useful with effects that reward you for gaining many cards. {{Project|Guildhall}} is particularly notable, allowing you to quickly amass [[Coffers]], while other effects such as {{Event|Triumph}} or {{Card|Garrison}} can be used to benefit in other ways. Playing Treasure Trove many times over the course of a game can additionally lead to scoring many {{VP}} with effects such as {{Landmark|Keep}} or {{Card|Gardens}}.
* Any other [[Big Money]] enablers: {{Card|Gear}}, {{Card|Embassy}}
+
* [[Alt-VP]], especially Alt-VP that makes you want to go for a slog anyway: {{Card|Gardens}}, {{Card|Duke}}, {{Card|Silk Road}}.
+
* Copper trashing: {{Card|Moneylender}} and friends, {{Card|Forager}}, {{Card|Counterfeit}}
+
* {{Card|Watchtower}} can trash the coppers as you gain them; {{Card|Trader}} gets you a {{Card|Silver}} instead
+
  
=== Anti-Synergies ===
+
Some effects such as {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} may allow you to play Treasure Trove during your Action phase. This in turn allows you to [[gain-and-play]] the Treasures gained by Treasure Trove, greatly accelerating its overall impact on your payload. {{Card|Storyteller}} is the most notable example of such an effect, as it is both [[non-terminal]] and can use the {{Card|Gold|Golds}} for draw, while somewhat mitigating the impact of the {{Card|Copper|Coppers}} on your deck control.
* Strong engines
+
* {{Card|Colony}} games
